Casting paid dancers for “Thumbelina” contemporary ballet


Avant Vermont Dance is casting 10 dancers, including one featured male dancer, for “Thumbelina,” a 30-minute original story ballet staged outdoors as part of The Junction Dance Festival. Dancers will each receive a stipend of $100, paid at the performance. 

Interested dancers must be aged high school to adult with a strong foundation in ballet. The featured male dancer must have basic partnering skills and experience with lifts. 

Our rehearsals will be an intensive company-style experience focused on developing our community of dancers. If you need help with housing during our rehearsal weekend, please let us know. Dancers must commit to the full rehearsal and performance schedule.
